I have a 30' x 14' crawl space with concrete walls, no vents, and a wood floor above, with fiberglass batts and a clear moisture barrier stapled to the joists. The floor is bare dirt with black plastic cover, and this black plastic is always wet when I go down there. There is a hatch to enter from inside the building. I'd like to use it for storage, but the moisture seems a big issue. I'd like to know what your company can offer.

5.0/5Kitty M.Pointe View Ct.

In the 14 months since I have bought my home in Medford, the house has been sinking. At last count, almost 2 inches on the back (downhill) side. Coming from CA, where as a 9-1-1 dispatcher, I have dispatched emergency vehicles to home that are sliding off a hill, etc. The fire department even had to burn one house to the ground that was sliding in to a downhill residence. Anyway, I finally decided that I really love this house and my beautiful unobstructed view of the Rogue Valley; so I had two different companies come out to give me a bid. TerraFirma was the most reviewed and received high grades, so I had them lift the house.
After the shock of the price, I went ahead with the work. The company is very educating for the consumer, the presentation, house check, measuring the drop from one side to the other, designing a plan for your house; the appointment took about 2 hours. Very professional and complete. You really feel that you know what is going on after the company leaves. After putting down my deposit and scheduling a date; the workers arrived at 8am on the assigned date and were very polite and worked like demons. I never realized how much physical work the crew of three would have to do and they took great care to disturb the yard as little as possible. Once all the poles were set, the hydraulics lifted the dropping section of the house as one unit to an almost perfectly level condition. Because I had put expensive windows in prior to learning of the sinking; the company did not want to lift so high as to break the new windows. I was hoping that cracks would come back together, but that did not especially happen and the company never guaranteed such a promise. The guys took two and one-half days and left the area very clean and presentable. Initially, I was worried that I would not have the immediate funds to pay for the project and their office (Another Angie) was very helpful and understanding of my problem. Fortunately, my funds did come through and I could pay the project off. But I felt comfortable that if I kept the company up to date and made full effort to pay off the balance; they would have worked well with me. Just as I trusted TerraFirma was my house, they trusted me with my payment-EXCELLENT. I was told the job would take two to three days and they were very accurate. After seeing the extend of their work (after lifting, they crawl under the house and shim areas), the price is reasonable for the work that they had to do. I highly recommend this company.

We met with system design specialist, Ryan Thomas, May 3, 2013. Previous to this meeting, we were sent a packet of information explaining the process. That was very helpful. Ryan evaluated our foundation and recommended that 20 of their piers be installed to fix the problem. He was very professional and explained exactly what would be done. We then scheduled the work to be done the week of May 20th.
The 3 man crew showed up Monday and worked, digging holes in which to place the piers. We were most impressed with their work ethic. They were all very pleasant. When the piers were all installed, they cleaned everything up and even added multibark to cover the muddy areas from the digging. We did have some major cracking in one room, but Ryan explained that we could expect that to happen. We would definitely recommend this company.

5.0/5Caryl O.Barclay Road

I was very impressed by the improvement in the cracks in our walls and ceiling, as well as by the hard-working crew. They were able to complete the job without disturbing any of our landscape shrubs. When they left, the ground around the house looked no different than when they arrived.

5.0/5Caryl O.Barclay Rd.

One end of our single-story house was settling, causing many cracks in walls, doors that wouldn't close properly, bouncy floors, etc. TerraFirma installed support piers around the perimeter, lifted the house to level (a somewhat weird experience), and fixed the supports in the crawl space. I was particularly concerned that, in doing their work around the exterior of the house, they would damage or destroy shrubs (some of them quite large and not easily replaced). However, they did a wonderful job of working around all the plantings. When they were finished, it was hard to believe that they had dug many two-foot deep holes and installed the piers. Everything looked the same as before. They ONLY--extremely minor-- damage I noted this spring was to one fern that had been dormant in November and was probably walked on. It survived and is doing well. After the work was completed, the south end of the house was level, doors opened and shut easily, and floors no longer squeaked and bounced. There were a few small new cracks as everything realigned, which was to be expected. We waited a couple months and had the walls repaired and everything painted. Like having a new house! It was a lot of money to spend, but the quality of work and the 75 year warranty make us confident that any problems that might develop would be dealt with in the same excellent manner. For us it was an A+ experience.

Job Stories From Ashland, OR

Basement Drainage Line and Sump Pump Brookings, OR

Keeping your basement dry some of the time isn't that hard. But, what home owner or building owner's goal is to keep their basement dry SOME of the time? Home owners want their basement dry ALL of the time to avoid potential moisture and mold problems. Just as important as collecting intrusive water is removal and relocation away from the foundation.

This commercial building in Brookings, OR already had an efficient drainage system. Water was being collected properly; However, it was the successful removal of this water that was the problem. By installing a Super Sump and 195 feet of drainage line, We were able to successfully remove the water and drain away from the foundation. This way, there will be no chance of this water reentering the building.

Commercial Building Stabilized with Helical Pier and PolyLEVEL Brookings, OR

In a large pole barn style building in Brookings, Oregon 30 miles from the Oregon-California border, foundation failure seemed almost imminent. The perimeter had settled, slabs had sunk, and at one point the building owner, an engineer for Western Region for Waste Connection thought demo and rebuild was the best option. This would have been an expensive solution had he not seen a TerraFirma van and called the number on the side for help.

Casey Moore from TerraFirma was sent out to the building site to evaluate the settlement issue and prescribe a remedy. To stabilize the foundation, helical piles were installed around the posts on the downhill side of the building. There was some excavation needed, but only to access the foundation footing. After permanently stabilizing the foundation, Casey addressed the sinking slab issue.

PolyLEVEL was installed, spanning the entire area of the interior building. PolyLEVEL will fill voids under the sinking slabs and raise them to be even throughout the floor plan. With the foundation stabilized and the slab work level, this commercial building is ready for market in tip top shape.

Piering Saves Sinking House in Ashland, OR

Soil settlement is hard to detect. There are some major indicators though. If you see cracks in the dry wall, cracking by windows and doors, or if those windows and doors don't quite open or shut easily, this might indicate that your foundation has settled. The Starr's home in Ashland, Oregon shows all these signs, not just in one corner of the home, but all along the front end indicating some serious settlement. Stabilization was needed immediately via hydraulic push piers.

13 piers were installed spanning the entire front end of the home. Because all piers are hooked hydraulically to the same unit, even pressure can be applied to every pier point. By evenly distributing the weight of the home on the push pier brackets, we can ensure the safest stabilization and potential lift the the home foundation. For heavier structures hydraulic piers are the best option and have been installed in all different types of soils throughout Oregon and Southwest Washington.

WaterGuard and Super Sump Pump Prevent Water Ashland, OR

When Ashland, OR native Barbara H, started noticing water leaking into her finished basement she started asking around to her friends about who can help. A local engineer recommended that she call Terrafirma Foundation Systems.

Barbara contacted the office to find out what they could do to help her. They sent out sales rep Casey Moore to her home. After a full inspection of her basement, Casey recommended a few of their products. The first product he recommended was a Super Sump Pump. This sump pump is a 1/3 horsepower cast iron pump that is capable of pumping out 2,500 gallons of water per hour out of your basement. Along with the sump pump, it was recommended that the CleanSpace Wall System and a WaterGuard drainage system. The CleanSace Wall System would prevent moisture from coming through the walls and would drain it to the WaterGuard System. The WaterGuard is a channel that would direct the water into the pit where the sump pumps are located.

Now, with these products installed, Barbara can go on knowing that he basement is prevented from any water or moisture from coming in.

Local Ashland, OR resident Alice F. suspected that her crawl space needed to be worked on. There was debris and moisture. She decided to take a look through the phone book for a company that can help her. She soon came across an ad for TerraFirma Foundation Systems.

This system is installed on the walls and floor of the crawl space to prevent and water vapor or humidity from seeping through. They also installed a Crawl-o-Sphere which is an additional protection and keep the crawl space dry.

PushPiers Prevent Sinking Foundation in Ashland,OR Home

When Dana B. of Ashland, OR started to notice that her rental home was sinking, she went in search of a company to help her. The sinking was starting to cause the side wall to crack. While looking through the phone book, she saw an ad for Terrafirma Foundation Systems.
